ok so whats recomended... i want to seal the lid.. but wanted be able to take if off without having a mess... especially if i have a leak or somthing when testing it out im gonna wanna make sure im not getting any water... is there anything recomended>?

 

I ussualy use sanitary silicon.

 

Foam Window stripping between lid and box,the clamps will hold it in place. People use it in place of the belt housing gasket as well.

 

i think i may have gotten water in my carb? but it didnt die under water... ? would the water still be in the bowl? or would it work its way out.. i do have some seafoam in there...

 

lol oops that wasnt supose to go in this post.. lol

 

Screw #21 will drain the bowl.

 

Over on highlifter, some use silicone, and IMO that is a mess when you remove, and most of the guys on there use Marine Grease to get a good seal

 

I had a little muddy water in our honda airbox (it didnt get past filter) i just cleaned it up and used marine grease on the seal on the lid. I had nothing in my polaris air box but still seales it up with a thin layer of marine grease.
